How would you make sure that apps use TLS for comunication? In the browser it's easy to see, but in apps those details are hidden away from the user.

Sniff the apps, uninstall if they don't, it's just plain unacceptable at this point. If there's something you really need that doesn't, set up a VPN.

Use a VPN, a commercial one that actually works, like F-secure Freedome.
